Police Board of Commissioners has resigned in disgrace after he was caught in the act with a hooker in his car — then asked officers if they could "help him out."
Bryan Ferguson, who represented District 1 for the DPBC and was the former chair of Detroit’s police oversight board, announced his resignation Thursday after news broke that he had been found with the sex worker on Wednesday morning.
"It has been an honor and a privilege to serve the residents of Detroit in police oversight," Ferguson told the Detroit Free Press in a statement.
"After further consideration of the best interests of my family and the Board, I am choosing to resign as District 1 Police Commissioner effective immediately."
Undercover narcotics agents from the Wayne County Sheriff’s Department spotted Ferguson committing a lewd act with a known sex worker around 7:15 a.m. Wednesday.
Capt. Jason Bates said he asked deputies at the scene if they could "help him out" and told him his position.
"At that time, Mr. Bryan Ferguson stepped out, identified himself as a Detroit police commissioner," Bates told Fox 2 Detroit.
"A title or position doesn’t make them above the law."
Ferguson told the Detroit Free Press the allegations are a "big misunderstanding" and said he "has nothing to hide."
